    Flow Diversion for Treatment of Partially Thrombosed Aneurysms: A Multicenter Cohort

    Foreman, Paul M.; Salem, Mohamed M.; Griessenauer, Christoph J.; Dmytriw, Adam A.; Parra-Farinas, Carmen; Nicholson, Patrick; Limbucci, Nicola; Kuhn, Anna Luisa; Puri, Ajit S.; Renieri, Leonardo; et al. (2020-03-01)
    BACKGROUND: Partially thrombosed intracranial aneurysms (PTIA) represent a unique subset of intracranial aneurysms with an ill-defined natural history, posing challenges to standard management strategies. This study aims to assess the efficacy of flow diversion in the treatment of this pathology. METHODS: A retrospective review of patients with flow-diverted PTIA at 6 cerebrovascular centers was performed. Clinical and radiographic data were collected from the medical records, with the primary outcome of aneurysmal occlusion and secondary outcomes of clinical status and complications. RESULTS: Fifty patients with 51 PTIA treated with flow diversion were included. Median age was 56.5 years. Thirty-three (64.7%) aneurysms were saccular and 16 (31.4%) were fusiform/dolichoectatic. The most common location was the internal carotid artery (54.9%) followed by the vertebral and basilar arteries (17.7% and 17.7%, respectively). Last imaging follow-up was performed at a median of 25.1 (interquartile range, 12.8-43) months. Complete occlusion at last radiographic follow-up was achieved in 37 (77.1%) aneurysms. Pretreatment aneurysm thrombosis of > 50% was associated with a significantly lower rate of complete aneurysm occlusion (58.8 vs. 87.1%, P = 0.026) with a trend toward better functional outcome (modified Rankin scale < 2) at last follow-up in patients with < 50% pretreatment aneurysm thrombosis (96.8 vs. 82.4; P = 0.08). Ischemic complications occurred in 5 (9.8%) patients, producing symptoms in 4 (7.8%) and resultant mortality in 2 (4.2%) patients. CONCLUSIONS: Flow diversion treatment of PTIA has adequate efficacy along with a reasonable safety profile. Aneurysms harboring large amounts of pretreatment thrombus were associated with lower rates of complete occlusion.
